Parameters

Name
Type: System::String^

Required. The name of the new attribute.

Value
Type: System::String^

Required. The value of the attribute, which may be a list of parameters for a property that has parameters, separated by commas.

Position
Type: System::Object^

Optional. Default = 0. The code element after which to add the new element. If the value is a CodeElement, then the new element is added immediately after it.

If Value is a Long, then AddAttribute indicates the element after which to add the new element.

Because collections begin their count at 1, passing 0 indicates that the new element should be placed at the beginning of the collection. A value of -1 means the element should be placed at the end.

Return Value

Type: EnvDTE::CodeAttribute^

A CodeAttribute object.

If the attribute already exists, AddAttribute adds another. This may be incorrect for the attribute or the language behind the code model.

System_CAPS_noteNote

The values of code model elements such as classes, structs, functions, attributes, delegates, and so forth can be non-deterministic after making certain kinds of edits, meaning that their values cannot be relied upon to always remain the same. For more information, see the section Code Model Element Values Can Change in Discovering Code by Using the Code Model (Visual Basic).
